Clinic recommendations
Hi ladies, My second cycle failed today as the only mature egg collected failed to fertilise. I am looking to change the clinic as the protocols from my current clinic seem to be too mild for me and only 2 and 1 mature eggs have been collected in each cycle so far. I am 43.5 years old so time is of

I saw the endo last week. Told her all my symptoms but she didn’t seem interested just that my TSH and ft3&ft4 were in limits. She said a lot of my symptoms could be from something else or age related. I said about vitamins and she said she would do them so that I could take some to see if that helped

metformin & tsh level
does anybody have any experience with metformin lowering TSH level? I came upon a study that said it can lower tsh in hypo patients. My daughter has been on 500 mg metformin for years. Her tsh is always low and she has a ton of hypo symptoms. I have hashimotos and my gut tells me she is headed there.

Endometrioma and IVF
Just wondering anyone that has had endometriomas and IVF how big they were to continue with IVF? I have had 2 opinions from two hospitals so feel confused what to do! 1 has advised to have the cysts removed and then go straight into IVF whilst the other is reluctant to do surgery due to my AMH but

Back to life thanks to this forum! GP Next steps though - further levo increase?
You've been so helpful. Your collective knowledge has led to a diagnosis of (ords) hashimotos, my levo being upped to 75mg and I'm pain free for the first time in 5 YEARS! Thank you. I feel alive again. I armed myself with printed NICE guidelines and facts/ research and GP didn't resist this time and

Feeling pretty meh miscarriage no 6
Hi ladies. this might be a long one sorry. I don’t even know why I’m posting this but can’t talk to the ”outside world”. My best friend lives aboard and I haven’t made any Mum friends since having Francesca. Those who don’t know me - I had an horrific 7 years struggle with involved 3 surgeries

Failed egg retrieval cycle
hello everyone, I recently had a failed cycle where my embryo did not make it to blastocyst on day 5. I was desperate for this cycle to be successful. I did everything I could, took ubiquinol, NAC, R-lipoic acid this time. I didn’t take any meds other than multivitamins in my first two cycles and

Any success with fresh IVF embryo transfer aged 44yrs
Hi to all, I’ve been on this rollercoaster now for many years and have read all your individual circumstances but have never posted. I have been through 7 brutal rounds of IVF as an international satellite patient which is another level of hardship. I had my retrieval done a few days ago and no surprise

Links between TSH and RLS. Have I found my cause in sub clinical hypothyroidism due to autoimmune disease Hashimoto syndrome?
As my RLS was under pretty good control I decided to see how I would go if I stopped my Tramadol 50-100mg daily, and tried CBD/THC oil instead. The answer was badly. My symptoms came back to the point I barely slept for 6 nights. And of course I also had withdrawal symptoms to deal with. As most of

Increase in Synthroid Dose Worse Before Feeling Better?
Hello, I'm a long time hypothyroid patient but the last few years after covid have been a wild ride finding the right dose again. I'm curious if anyone can offer insight as to why the first one to two weeks of a medication dose increase I feel amazing and then I tank horribly after. All the hypo symptoms

Heart rate after levothyroxine increase
Hello all :) I recently got myself a private endocrinologist appointment after being increasingly frustrated by GPs being dismissive, and not wanting to increase my levothyroxine as my levels were "normal" despite still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I'm so glad I did, because she was very kind, completely

Hi ladies, this is my first time posting on here, and its a bit of a long one, sorry. We had a transfer on the 20th April, however this ended in a chemical pregnancy. Had lots (and LOTS) of positive tests, but never any progression. To say we were devastated would be an understatement. I already
